Homes today

Some people today live in homes made of natural materials like mud, stone, or wood. Many people live in homes made of man-made materials like concrete, bricks, plastic, and glass.

In big cities many people live in apartments. These are homes on one floor of a bigger building. Some apartments are above shops or in old houses. Others are in tall buildings called skyscrapers. Apartments are often built on top of each other in one building because there isn't enough land for a lot of houses.

Outside the city there is more land for homes. People often have gardens or land to grow vegetables. Detached houses have space all around them.

Other people live in houses called bungalows, or ranch houses. These are detached houses with all the rooms on one floor.

The old building below is called a cottage. It is made of bricks and has a thatched roof. People in many parts of the world build homes with thatched roofs.

Rich people sometimes live in big houses called mansions. They have electricity, running water, central heating, air conditioning, nice bathrooms, expensive furniture, carpets, and sometimes even swimming pools! They often have big gardens, too.

Poor people often don't have enough money to buy or build their own home. Some families share small apartments with other families. The whole family sleeps in one room, and two or three families share one bathroom.

Some very poor people can't live with other families, so they have to build homes with things that other people throw away, like bits of metal, fabric, or wood. Places where there are lots of these homes together are called shanty towns. There's no electricity or running water.

Many people today are homeless and do not have a home at all. Homeless people sometimes sleep on the street in big cities. In some places there are shelters where they can stay, but sometimes the only thing they have is a cardboard box!
